Values are moral statements about right and wrong. How do values have power?
In the context of optimization, values are anything you want (whether moral in nature or otherwise).
Any time a decision is made based on some value, you can view that value as having exercised power by controlling the outcome of that decision.
Or put more simply, the way that values have power, is that values have people who have power.
